Celebrating the Big 2

We spent a good chunk of the week celebrating Kirin's official entree into the terrible twos

First, his friends and teachers sang to him in daycare on his actual birthday

On the same day, we sang to him in the evening and discovered Kirin's joy of blowing candles, or as he described it, "I'm-a blow up cake!"

 Finally, we had a small gathering at home over the weekend

The party started with a flourish when Kirin threw a tantrum that ended with him tossing a full bottle of red wine on the back patio...
 

Do I look like I would do something like that?

And of course, more cake and candles!

Kirin is 2 Years Old

The stars aligned today for Kirin's 2nd birthday!  We did a photo shoot to celebrate.

The second picture is him answering "two" when you ask him how old he is :)

Milan's First Day of Kindergarten!

Milan attended his first day of school today!

But first - we celebrated his last day as a preschooler yesterday by playing hooky and doing some of his favorite things without being hindered by his little brother...

The days activities included the tech museum, his favorite pizza place, eating donuts for dessert, playing with silly toys, paddle boating, and more dessert (ice cream)

 Milan was very excited to start his new adventure in elementary school

 Kirin tried to take his spot but Milan had the enrollment advantage

 

Looking forward to seeing how Milan grows this year!
